USN-5897-1: OpenJDK vulnerabilities

Releases

• Ubuntu 22.10
• Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
• Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
• Ubuntu 18.04 ESM

Packages

• openjdk-17 - Open Source Java implementation
• openjdk-19 - Open Source Java implementation
• openjdk-lts - Open Source Java implementation

Details

Juraj Somorovsky, Marcel Maehren, Nurullah Erinola, and Robert Merget
discovered that the DTLS implementation in the JSSE subsystem of OpenJDK
did not properly restrict handshake initiation requests from clients. A
remote attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2023-21835)

Markus Loewe discovered that the Java Sound subsystem in OpenJDK did not
properly validate the origin of a Soundbank. An attacker could use this to
specially craft an untrusted Java application or applet that could load a
Soundbank from an attacker controlled remote URL. (CVE-2023-21843)
